Ks0259 keyestudio PN532 NFC/RFID Controller Shield

keyestudio PN532 NFC/RFID Controller Shield

Introduction

Keyestudio PN532 NFC/RFID Controller Shield based on PN532 chip is used for field communication close to 13.56MHz. This shield is equipped with an antenna onboard, so there is no external antenna coil. It is compatible with SPI, IIC, UART interface to communicate. When using it, directly stack it onto UNO R3 control board.

Specifications

• Chip：NXP PN532
• Working Voltage：3.3V
• Power Voltage：3.3～5.5V
• Max Power Current：150mA
• Working Current (standby mode): 100 mA
• Working Current (write mode): 120 mA
• Working Current (read mode): 120 mA
• Pointer: PWR
• The longest effective communication distance is 5 cm
• Support SPI, IIC, UART interface switching.
• Can be used for 13.56M non-contact communication.
• Compatible with ISO14443 TYPE A and B standard.

Details

• Dimensions: 69mm x 54mm x 24mm
• Weight: 18.3g

Interface Explanation

Interface Control

	SET0	SET1
UART	L	L
SPI	L	H
IIC	H	L

Simple Hookup

Simply stack the shield onto UNO R3 board .
It uses SPI communication. Connect SCK, MI, MO and NSS on the shield with jumper cap. Then slide SET0 to L, SET1 to H.
